1 Homework 5. Solutions 1. Let (X,T) be a topological space and let A,B be subsets of X. Show that the closure of their union is given by A B = A B. Since A B is a closed set that contains A B and A B is the smallest closed set that contains A B, we must certainly have A B A B. To prove the opposite inclusion, we note that Theorem 2.5 gives x A B = every neighbourhood of x intersects A or B = every neighbourhood of x intersects A B = x A B.
2 Homework 5. Solutions 2. Find two open intervals A,B R such that A B A B. Pick any real numbers a < b < c and consider the open intervals A = (a,b), B = (b,c). Since A B =, one also has A B =. On the other hand, A B = [a,b] [b,c] = {b}.
3 Homework 5. Solutions 3. Let (X,T) be a topological space and let A X. Show that A = A is both open and closed in X. If A is both open and closed in X, then the boundary of A is A = A X A = A (X A) =. Conversely, suppose that A =. Then Theorem 2.6 gives A = A. Since A A A by definition, these three sets are equal, so A = A = A = A is both open and closed in X.
4 Homework 5. Solutions 4. Let (X,T) be a topological space and let A X. Show that X A = X A. Using Theorem 2.5, one finds that x X A every neighbourhood of x intersects X A no neighbourhood of x is contained in A x / A x X A.
5 Homework 6. Solutions 1. Let (Y,T) be a topological space and let A Y. Show that A is open in Y if and only if every point of A has a neighbourhood which lies within A. Hint: We know that A is open if and only if A = A. As we already know, a set A is open if and only if A = A. On the other hand, one always has A A by definition, so a set A is open if and only if A A. This is true precisely when every point of A has a neighbourhood which lies within A.
6 Homework 6. Solutions 2. Let (X,T) be a Hausdorff space. Show that the set A = {(x,y) X X : x y} is open in X X. Hint: Use the previous problem with Y = X X. Let (x,y) be an arbitrary point of A. Then x y and there exist sets U,V which are open in X with x U, y V and U V =. Now, the product U V is a neighbourhood of (x,y) such that (a,b) U V = a U and b V = a b = (a,b) A. It is thus a neighbourhood of (x,y) which lies within A. Using the previous problem, we conclude that A is open in X X.
7 Homework 6. Solutions 3. Suppose X is a Hausdorff space that has finitely many elements. Show that every subset of X is open in X. Hint: Use Theorem If A is a subset of X, then its complement is a finite subset of a Hausdorff space X, so it is closed in X. Since the complement of A is closed in X, we conclude that A is open in X.
8 Homework 6. Solutions 4. Suppose f: X Y is both continuous and injective. Suppose also that Y is Hausdorff. Show that X must be Hausdorff as well. Suppose x,y are distinct points in X. Then f(x),f(y) are distinct points in Y by injectivity. Since Y is Hausdorff, we can always find sets U,V which are open in Y with f(x) U, f(y) V, U V =. It follows by continuity that f 1 (U),f 1 (V) are open in X with x f 1 (U), y f 1 (V), f 1 (U) f 1 (V) =. This shows that the space X is Hausdorff as well.
9 Homework 7. Solutions 1. Show that the unit circle C = {(x,y) R 2 : x 2 + y 2 = 1} is connected. Hint: Use polar coordinates and Theorem In terms of polar coordinates, the points on the unit circle are the points that have the form (cosθ,sinθ). Consider the function f: [0,2π) R 2, f(θ) = (cosθ,sinθ). Each component of f is continuous, so f itself is continuous. Since the domain of f is an interval, it is connected, so the image of f is connected as well. In other words, the unit circle C is connected.
10 Homework 7. Solutions 2. Let U = {(x,y) R 2 : xy 0}. How many connected components does this set have? Hint: One of the components is (0, ) (0, ). To say that xy 0 is to say that each of x,y is either positive or negative. Thus, U can be expressed as the union of the sets U 1 = (0, ) (0, ), U 3 = (,0) (0, ), U 2 = (0, ) (,0), U 4 = (,0) (,0). Each of these sets is a product of intervals and thus connected. It remains to show that they are actually connected components. Let A be a connected subset of U and let p i : A R denote the projection on the ith variable. By continuity, each p i (A) is an interval that does not contain 0, so it is contained in either (,0) or (0, ). Thus, A itself is contained in one of the sets U j.
11 Homework 7. Solutions 3. Show that there is no surjective continuous function f: A B, if A = (0,3) (3,6), B = (0,1) (1,2) (2,3). Hint: Look at the restriction of f on each subinterval. You will need to use Theorem 2.11 and also some parts of Theorem Note that A = A 1 A 2 is the union of two disjoint open intervals and B = B 1 B 2 B 3 is the union of three disjoint open intervals. Since f: A B is continuous, each restriction f: A i B must be continuous, so each f(a i ) must be connected. Since f(a i ) is a connected subset of B 1 B 2 B 3, it lies within either B 1 or B 2 B 3. If it actually lies in B 2 B 3, then it lies within either B 2 or B 3. Thus, each f(a i ) is contained in a single B j and the function f is not surjective, contrary to assumption.
12 Homework 7. Solutions 4. Let (X,T) be a topological space and suppose A 1,A 2,...,A n are connected subsets of X such that A k A k+1 is nonempty for each k. Show that the union of these sets is connected. Hint: Use induction. When n = 1, the union is equal to A 1 and this set is connected by assumption. Suppose that the result holds for n sets and consider the union of n+1 sets. This union has the form U = A 1 A n A n+1 = B A n+1, where B is connected by the induction hypothesis. Since A n+1 has a point in common with A n, it has a point in common with B. In particular, the union B A n+1 is connected and the result follows.
13 Homework 8. Solutions 1. Show that the set A = {(x,y) R 2 : x 2 +4y 4 4} is compact. First of all, the set A is bounded because its points satisfy x 2 x 2 +4y 4 4 = x 2, 4y 4 x 2 +4y 4 4 = y 1. To show that A is also closed, we consider the function f: R 2 R, f(x,y) = x 2 +4y 4. Since f is continuous and (,4] is closed in R, its inverse image is closed in R 2. This means that A is closed in R 2. Since A is both bounded and closed in R 2, we conclude that A is compact.
14 Homework 8. Solutions 2. Show that the set B is a compact subset of R 2 when B = {(x,y) R 2 : x 0, y 0, x+y 1}. First of all, the set B is bounded because its points satisfy 0 x x+y 1, 0 y x+y 1. To show that B is also closed, we consider the functions f 1 (x,y) = x, f 2 (x,y) = y, f 3 (x,y) = x+y. These are all continuous functions and it is easy to see that B = f1 1 ([0, )) f 1 2 ([0, )) f 1 3 ((,1]). In particular, B is closed in R 2 and also bounded, so it is compact.
15 Homework 8. Solutions 3. Suppose A,B are compact subsets of a Hausdorff space X. Show that A B is compact. Hint: Use the first two parts of Theorem Since A is a compact subset of a Hausdorff space X, it is actually closed in X. This implies that A B is closed in B. Being a closed subset of a compact space, A B must also be compact.
16 Homework 8. Solutions 4. Let C n be a sequence of nonempty, closed subsets of a compact space X such that C n C n+1 for each n. Show that the intersection of these sets is nonempty. Hint: One has (X C i ) = X C i. Suppose the intersection is empty. Then we actually have X = X C i = (X C i ), i=1 so the sets X C i form an open cover of X. Since X is compact, it is covered by finitely many sets, say the first k. This gives X = k (X C i ) = X i=1 i=1 k C i = X C k, i=1 so the set C k must be empty, contrary to assumption.
